EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the elegance and power of four magnificent sailing yachts. The group consists of Ma oona, Bloodhound, Sonya, and Creole - each vessel exuding its unique charm.

Designed by esteemed naval architects such as Alfred Mylne and Nathanael Greene Herreshoff, these vessels represent a fusion of artistry and engineering brilliance.
